The Litmus Test

Fulham head into the international break with 10 points from 10 games after a 1-1 draw with Newcastle on Saturday. Elizabeth, Drew, AF, and Sarah look back at the key events from the weekend's game, including Newcastle's disallowed goal from Dan Burn and Rodrigo Muniz's return to form. Then we look back on Arbeloa's first 10 games in the Premier League and discuss whether we're happy with the start to the 26/27 season.

Sammy, Piers, Dom, and Dan break down Fulham's 1-1 draw away at Aston Villa. Arbeloa's side came away with a first Premier League point at Villa Park in 12 years, and it came thanks to a Zion Suzuki own goal from an Alex Iwobi corner. We discuss Oscar Bobb's man-of-the-match display and whether he's now an upgrade on Harry Wilson. We also debate the handball penalty, pick apart Villa's goal, and ask why Fulham keep missing so many big chances. We then look at Arbeloa's substitutions and Kevin being frozen out, whether Smith Rowe and Andersen should go in January, and whether you'd settle for 15th right now. With Newcastle up next, has Arbeloa now earned himself until Christmas? If you enjoy Fulhamish, please consider subscribing to our Substack.

Death, taxes, losing against Crystal Palace at home. It was our fifth defeat at home against the Eagles within the last 18 months as, once again, Fulham crash out of the Carabao Cup. Jack and Elizabeth review the game: we discuss the line-up, errors across the backline, and what needs to change up top. Then we look forward to Aston Villa (A) - it's been seven losses in a row at Villa Park. Stranger things have happened than Fulham springing a surprise, though... right?

Sammy, Jack, Avais, and James break down Fulham's 1-0 victory away at Coventry City, as Alvaro Arbeloa and his side made it back-to-back wins in the Premier League. We discuss Oscar Bobb's incredible goal and whether that moment can give him confidence to kick on. We also praise Shea Charles and Josh King for the impact they had on this match. We then look at the Crystal Palace game in the Carabao Cup. Should Arbeloa resist the temptation to make sweeping changes for this, in what could be a huge opportunity to reach a cup quarter-final?
